AS A recreation ranger for Forestry Commission Wales, Deanne Mizen's job takes her to some of the most beautiful places in north Wales.

Now, she has used her artistic skills to capture those scenes on canvas.

Two of Deanne's paintings are currently on display at the FC Wales visitor centre at Coed-y-Brenin, near Dolgellau, as part of an autumn art exhibition showcasing the work of a group of contemporary artists living in Gwynedd.

Deane's paintings are called Rhaeadr Du, named after waterfalls in the deciduous woodlands of Ganllwyd, and Dol Gain (first light), looking across farm and moorland to the Llanuwchllyn mountains.

“Rhaeadr Du is a place I often send visitors, especially now as the colours of autumn are starting to show,” said Deanne.
